He who loves from his heart dies too, but its beat holds the song of an Age.
Song of an Age

He who writes on paper
loses all when comes the flood.
He who shares with a booming voice
gains an audience deaf and dumb.
He who acts with his own bold brawn
gains the solace of the grave.
He who loves from his heart dies too,
but its beat holds the song of an Age.
